Question About Unsupported Excel Function Workarounds

Hi everyone! I hope this is ok to post something like this here. I haven't seen any rules against it so I am hoping I am able to. My apologies in advance if this is something I should ask in another location.
My question / issue is in regards to the unsupported ISNA and ISBLANK functions in Excel. I can't seem to find a suitable workaround for XCelsius without using those two formulas in Excel and I am hoping someone here will be able to help or guide me.
I have a cell that is for my input. If that cell has nothing in it I want Excel to continue to return the #N/A error as it is ignored and not shown in the List Box I have built in XCelsius. If there is a value input and it is not found in the Excel model I want it to return "No Record". Finally, if it is found then it will display the appropriate list of items.
Any suggestions on a way to get this to function within Excel that will be compatible within XCelsius?
Thanks in advance for your help everyone!

Hi Aaron,
both ISNA and ISBLANK are supported functions. The support for most IS() functions was added in SP1. They are not in the list in the help yet, but there should be the list of added functions in release notes. So, the following functions are supported:
ISERR
ISERROR
ISEVEN
ISODD
ISLOGICAL
ISNONTEXT
ISTEXT
TYPE
ISNUMBER
ISNA

  • List of Unsupported Excel Functions

    I just discovered Xcelsius doesn't support the "indirect" function.  Can you provide a list of all functions that Xcelsius doesn't support so I can avoid them?  Thanks very much!

    Even I am facing the same error when I preview or save as a SWF, Xcelsius warns: "UnSupported Excel Function: INDIRECT indirect" and terminates the attempt.
    I am using nested functions: "=IF(ISBLANK(INDIRECT("'"&'Summary'!D14&"'!B12")),"",INDIRECT("'"&'Summary'!D14&"'!B12"))"
    Any ideas why xcelsius is throwing up an error when it lists INDIRECT as an supported function? I am using the most recent version (5.2.1.0, build 12,2,1,94).
    Can anybody help me out with a workaround for navigating between worksheets without indirect function???
    Thanks in Advance!
    Cheers!!!

  • Some question about the renegotiation function in SRM Contract (GOA)

    Hi All Expert,
    We are on SRM 5/4.6,  there is a question about the renegotiation function in SRM GOA.
    Can we renegotiate the price for some parts in the GOA items with this function ( e.g. Only renegotiate one item in the contract) ?
    Will the item price updated automatically after the renegotiation?
    Many thanks in advance!!!
        Wendrin

    Hi Sanjeev,
    Many thanks for your help.
    One more question, if I add a new item when we renegotiation, will it be transfered to contract and create a new item after that?
    Thanks and best regards

  • Questions about user-defined functions

    Hello all,
    I've got some questions about user-defined function in a message mapping:
    1) How can I get the current date/time in format yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss ? What is the java code for this?
    2) I want to use the StreamTransformation constant TIME_SENT, only this is not in the right time-zone.
    It is GMT and it should be CET (1 hour difference). How can I convert this in Java?
    Can somebody help me with this?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kind regards,
    Marco van Iersel

    Hi Marco,
    If the date format is fixed as you have mentioned,please use this:
                                    String test = "2009-03-27 23:15:30";
              String test1 = test.substring(11,13);
              if(!test1.equals("23"))
              int a = Integer.parseInt(test1);
              int b = a+1;
              System.out.println("b"+b);
              String c = Integer.toString(b);
                                    test = test.substring(0,10)+" " + c + test.substring(13,19);
                                    return test;
              if(test1.equals("23"))
              test = test.substring(0,10)+ " 00" + test.substring(13,19);
              return test;
                                    else return "";
    Kindly let me know if this works.
    Thanks.

  • Question about PL/SQL Function in report

    Hi all. I have a (basic) question about using a PL/SQL function in a report. In my report page I have an item (PL/SQL function) that has the following syntax:
    return username from t1
    where username like 'Le%'
    I reference this item in an email process. Ideally this function would return all usernames that begin with 'Le' in the drafted email; however, its not looping so I'm only getting a return on the first name.
    I have a few books on PL/SQL but I'm not exactly sure where to start - I imagine there is a loop process I need to integrate into the function but, like I said, I'm not sure.
    I would have posted this to the PL/SQL forum but also wanted some feedback on whether or not using this method is the best way forward. Essentially I have a table with usernames and just want to send email messages based on some simple logic.
    Thanks!
    Len

    Hi Sergio,
    First, it's an honor to have you reply to my post. Thanks!
    To be more specific,
    T1 is a table containing the results from a user security scan. Username is a column in this table containing user names. What I have done is create a page in HTML DB with the following elements:
    1. An 'Item' containing the PL/SQL function that is hidden. The purpose of this Item is to generate information from T1 that meets the simple logic parameters - in this case, the user names that begin with "Le". I have called this Item P145_TT
    2. A 'Process' containing references to HTMLDB_MAIL. The 'Process' looks similar to this:
    HTMLDB_MAIL.SEND(
    P_TO => '[email protected]',
    P_FROM => 'Anon Email Account',
    P_BODY => 'Note: This message was automatically generated. Do not attempt to reply to this email.
    These are the users that begin with Le: '||:P145_TT||' ',
    P_SUBJ => 'Summary');
    3. A 'Button' to submit the process and (hopefully) send the message containing all users that adhere to the logic in the function.
    4. If I use 'return username from t1...' I will get a username generated, but like I said previously, it only gives me the first and does not loop.

  • Question about Custom Escalation Function

    I want to use a Custom Escalation Function described on this document:
    http://docs.tpu.ru/docs/oracle/en/owl/E14571_01/integration.1111/e10224/bp_workflow.htm#BACHEFDH
    I want to execute a custom function on task EXPIRATION.
    Main Question: The "Custom Escalation Function" is just for Escalation or i can use too for EXPIRATION ?
    Thanks.
    Victor Jabur

    Okay Experts. The problem is solved. There was no problem with the custom key figure function. The problem was with the sales order data. The sales order details for the material in question were under the "make to order" segment and the other transaction data info was in the "make to stock" segment.
    Once i found this out , i tried loading someother material and it worked perfectly.
    Thanks

  • I have a question about the Siri function.

    Here in Belgium, we speak Dutch and also French and English. But I think when you use the Siri function it is always easier to use it with your own language ( Dutch). 28th October, the iphone4S will be launched here in Belgium, but only with a Englisch version of the Siri function. So my question is that you have any idea when te Dutch version will be available in Belgium, or when i buy an iphone 4S with English version that I can update it to a Dutch version when it will be launched..
    Thank you for helping
    Dylan

    Nobody here can tell you anything more about Apple's plans than what they have already publicly stated, which is that more languages were promised for later (including Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Italian, and Spanish in 2012).

  • Need help with question about Microsoft Excel?

    I have recently begun using Microsoft Office for Mac. My question is related to the Excel program. I have used this for years on a PC where when the program opens, it shows a Workbook with a single page. However, on the Mac, when it opens, it shows many pages, the first going from column A to G, the second going from H to N, etc. and each page with the text "Click to add data". This continues forever. I would like to have just one sheet as on the PC. I have not found a way to limit this view to a single page. I have looked in the Preferences and in "View", but nothing seems to change the configuration. Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    My zoom only shows the magnification and does not give a "one page" option. However, I did find an icon that I loaded into the menu bar which gives the one page view. This may be due to the version 2004 that I am using.
    I also find that if I want to change the number of columns and rows, I change the size of each. I assume this is correct.
    Thanks for the help. This is slightly different that the PC version, but I am sure over time, there will be no problem.

  • Question about calling a function.

    So what is your question?
    Besides:
    - the things are called "methods"Hello There!
    Sorry, i'm trying to call a 'method'. I have buttons numbered 0-9 which enter into a text field once clicked using ActionEvent. At the moment each button has its own block of code which is a bad habit as its the same code over with one differance, the number value.
    Am i right in thinking i should create one method? Then calling this method on each button.
    The problem i have is i am unsure of the code to call the method within each buttons ActionEvent ie:-
    private void jButton1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
             //call the method keyPad when button is clicked
    private void keyPad(java.awt.event.ActionEvent keyPad){
              //run this
    - if you define a method to accept a parameter, you
    actually have to provide a parameter upon calling
    that method.I don't understand???
    Thanks

  • Question about exceptions in function module GUI_DOWNLOAD

    To all,
    I add the function module 'GUI_DOWNLOAD' in the ABAP report program. After the user download the data to excel, the program also displays a report on the screen for print output.
    If the user keep the excel file open and tries to replace the file on download, the program gives an error message 'Access to file denied' and the program ends without displaying a report on the screen.
    Is there any way not to end the program even if download is failed?
    I would like the program displays a report after it gives an error message.
    So I am trying to use exceptions. But if I code to give messages, the programs ends as above. And if I just make exit when it happens, no error message and the program displays a report but the user don't know if the excel file was updated or not.
    Could anybody kindly let me know how to code exceptions and messages if it is possible the program works I hope.
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Best regards,
    Miki Komatsu

     I figured out how to do that.
      Thanks.

    Hi all,
    I'm recording vocals on a song that has lots of ritardandi and rubato. While the vocalist is here, we'll be setting her part of the tempo mapping in "stone," so to speak, but not necessarily the instruments' tempo mapping between her verses or before her verses.
    I usually record this kind of thing in Digital Performer, because I know that the audio sticks like glue to any ritardando, accelerando, etc., I may put in after recording the audio.
    My question: Does the "Follow Tempo" box in Logic let me program in ritards after the audio is recorded, without messing up how the audio is synced to the sequence?
    Yes.
    In other words, if the audio region spans bars 12-24, and I plug in a big ritard at bar 15, followed by "a tempo" in 16 after the audio is recorded, will the audio region follow the tempo mapping?
    Yes.
    +"Plug in a big ritard"+ ? You are one tough composer!
    2nd question: Does it do it automatically? Or, like Digital Performer, do I need to tell it to follow the tempo mapping after I change tempo?
    No, it 'responds' to tempo events in the *tempo track*.
    Any other tips/suggestions regarding this function that you feel would be helpful for me?
    Yep, it can eat up RAM. When you enable follow tempo for a track, the whole audio file is loaded into RAM. Use a utility like MenuMeters to keep an eye on RAM use. http://www.pure-mac.com/diag.html#menumeters
    You can find all relevant info on pages 526-527 of the *Logic Pro 8 User Manual*.

  • Question about the alarm function.

    Has anyone used the alarm function on the iPhone?
    This may be a dumb question, but does the phone need to be in sleep mode, not shut off for alarms to work? If that is the case (I expect it is) would it be best to leave on while charging overnight for an early morning alarm to work properly?
    I think I've answered my own question, because I doubt an alarm can go off if the phone is off, but probably would if it was just asleep. Any thoughts on the alarm function in general?
    Thanks,
    CD3

    CD3, I would also assume the same but I do not really
    know the answer. To answer your question, yes. I use
    the Alarm function everyday thought I do not know why
    as I get up before the !@# thing wakes me up.
    Your answer is funny. I only need the alarm to wake me for a flight I'm taking to a show in Denver in Sept. Don't want to miss the flight because the alarm didn't work because the phone was completely off.
    So the non lazy way to answer my question...I'm going to try it myself. If it works one way or the other I'll mark my question answered and get myself a point or 2

  • Question about SAP standard functionality related to the GL master record.

    My question is;
    Is this a SAP standard functionality to update the description ( long text or short) of a GL account (in master record) in one company code when we change the description of the same GL account in another company code which is assigned to the same chart of account?
    For example we have two company codes and both are assigned to the same chart of account and we are changing long text of one GL account in one CoCd. Should it update the long text of the same GL account in other CoCd assigned to the same chart of account? If so, then is this a standard SAP functionality or there is any setting where we can turn this functionality on or off.
    Thanks in advance for help n answer.
